I dont know what to say or do i had him since i was 3 im 19 now i had him for about 16 years and 4 months.
It just happened out of nowhere.
I was acting wiered all week so friday we took him to the vet to get treated and just died right there on his own.
For a week he had issues with his back legs and couldent walk or stand so he kept knocking his water bowl on the floor to drink the water off the floor because it was easier for him to drink.
I thought it was because he was hot because in our apartment its always the heat is blasting and i cant change the temp.
So i thought he made himself wet to stay cool.
the day he died and day before he dident eat or use the bathroom so we took him to the vet and found out he had a lot of health issues and they were gonna watch him for the next 3 days.After the vet said that her co worker brought in my ct saying he is having his final breaths.
I dont know what to say or do i had him my whole life and i need some encouraging words now.
All i got from other people was negative and insenstive words like the cat should have been dead years ago or its just a cat dont worry about it.
This cat was so much like a human you forget he is a cat.
If you knew him personally you would think he was a human in a cat body.

Anyway they were going to look after him and then he just died having his final breaths.

I dont know what to say or do or know what to do anthing of any kind.Im lost right now.
He was fine and ok over a week ago,and then boom.

He never needed a vet before he was always ok,He usually complains about things like if he was hungry or thirsty so if he did need to go to a vet he would have gotten our attention.

He always seemed fine like normal behavior until the last week going into his last 2 days.

We found out from the vet he was diabetic he had high white blood cells low blood sugar (40) no iron in his blood i think its called animea or something.
And he was facing kidney failure.

I need someone to tell me some good words now because im lost and dumbfounded now.
He was fine the other day all ok and normal and now hes gone.
I dont understand how he was diabetic that and everything else they told us was a surprise.

only time the cat was in a vet before was when he was a kitten for his vaccines and being fixed other than that he was home and ok.

They told us that cats dont tell/show humans there sick until its too late.
Dogs show when theres somethign worng all the time while as cats just look fine.When he did look sick it was oo late.

im shocked,lost,dumfounded,hurt and i dont know what to do.The last 3 days were long and agrevating i cant belive Its still ONLY sunday.
Its going to cost over $500 to cover the visit bill and the cremation
please any good words to make me feel better would be greatly appreciated.
 
Dude, I feel your pain. I have a family of cats. Every time one of them dies, I cringe a little bit. They're so cute, purring and rubbing their head on my leg. My cats usually die by drive by. It's so sad.

I guess that was his 9nth life :lol: I hope that joke cheered you up some. :smile: I hope you feel better soon.
 
He was like a person his personality/character was so strong you forget most of the time hes a cat.
I had cats before but i always knew they were cats.This one was my first cat and my best friend.I had him a long time.
I had other cats too but i knew they were cats with my cat which i call him tiger i dident see cat with him a seen a person.
He was more person than human.
I never felt this way for any other cat before and i had a few that came and go this cat was here first and survived the other cats we had.we had quite a few cats too.
It is like no other cat mattered this cat was the best because of what he did and how he did it.

There is so many storys about this cat you gotta hear i will tell you in a post later.
but man im sad im telling you he was a person in a cat body becaus eother cats i could be sad for and move on quickly this cat is like a close family member.
I felt a huge part of myself died.

I dont know what to do when im home i dont wanna go out,when im out i dont wanna go home.
I dont know where to do or to stay.I dont know if i should be asleep,awake,eat,listen to music,watch tv or play videogames.
Its like i need someone to make decisions for me because i just dont know what to do

by the way this cat had more than 9 lives because of how his life went i would guess he had about 20 lives.
i will explain why he probably had 20 lives in his life later tonight.
So is it 7 years for every one human year or what.How old was my cat if he was 16 and 4 months how old is that in cat years.
 
I get what you're saying man...my grandmother had a cat for 22 years before he passed....he had been around since I was born. So I feel your pain man...youll feel better in time.
 
Its such a shock we dident expect anything,everything happened so fast in a weeks time.
the last week we thought he was hot because he kept spilling the water over and wetting himself with the water.

he had weak legs this week he had trouble walking i just thought he couldent walk anymore like his bones arent like they used to be.I thought his leg issue was aging because he used his legs last week fine.He had fine legs then they dident work or not as good anywayi dident think nothing of it maybe hes aging or tired or whatever and now the las 2 days he dident eat so we knew there was something wrong
I cant belive what happened they were gonna watch him and take care of him they hooked him up to a Iv to help him but ended up dieing shortly after.
The last day he was alive he seemed very tired and his head kept lieng on the ground as if he was dieing his eyes seems like a far away look in them so when we saw that we took him to a vet.

Everything seemed fin until the last day or 2 the few days before that we dident think of anythign serious justhes tired or aging or hot or whatever.

im not sure what to do i feel pain and numbness at the same time.
i feel imobile.
 
That really sucks. While I've never lost a cat (can't keep them, make me sneeze/eyes water/etc), I've lost enough other pets to know what it feels like. While a fish or a hermit crab isn't the same as a cat, I know as a fact that in time, you'll get over it and feel a lot better. Try to think about the positives. When the time is right, perhaps get a new kitten or adopt an animal. I've known people who have lost animals, and it really helped them to get a new one relatively soon. While you'll still miss your old cat, you'll have some one else to love you, and to cheer you up when your sad. Hope all goes well, and hope you're able to get past the sadness quickly and painlessly as possible.
 
How old was my cat if he was 16 and 4 months how old is that in cat years.

16 * 6 = 96... I think? I know dog years you multiply by 7, dunno cats they live waaay longer.


In any case, R.I.P crazypokemoncat. May he be happy in kitty heaven playing the keyboard with fatso himself. Sorry for ur loss - I know how it is :/
 
I do understand your pain. After reading this, it made me think of my cat...

I hope that they met up with each other and are having a blast upstairs.

Then hopefully one day, we will be reunited with our furry loved ones, never to be separated again
 
What do you mean he playing keyboard with fatso himself.What???
Did i miss something?
Now someone said to me its the same for cats as in dogs 16*7 but some say because its 9 lives its
16*9
He was perfectly fine days ago and now hes gone.I dident notice anything till recently.
Im really upset because if i knew anything earlier i would have gotten him to a vet sooner.

16 * 6 = 96... I think? I know dog years you multiply by 7, dunno cats they live waaay longer.

Fatso is the keyboard cat - an internet meme - just search youtube for keyboard cat. He died recently and some people did like an art gallery in his honor.

I'm very sorry. Cats are wonderful creatures. I love my cats. One of my cats dissapeared and i miss him dearly. Things will be okay:thumb:. I understand how it feels to lose a pet.
 
my cat tiger was such a huge part of the family it was almost as if he was the big boss man of the family.
even though he was a cat that was the last thing on anyones mind.
He was way too much like a person,he was just as annoying as me sometimes.If i did something to annoy my mom he will do something too.Almost like a one up man ship in who can piss off my mom.It was funny it was like having a sibling teaming up against the parent.
kids vs adult.
He seem too smart and had too much personality and character for a cat.You put him with a bunch of other cats and he was an outkast he was in a class all on his own he dident have any peers he was a one and only individual.
As if a person died and reancarnated into a cat.
 
its hard losing a pet i lost a dog a few yrs ago she was so fun and acted like a person i was mad when ppl said its just a dog even one of my teachers made fun of me for leaving school early cause i was depressed about her

truth is in this world u cant trust anyone but urself i have one friend and shes amazing and we beloeve trust no one just u and me and we get along great (thats not really relivent but itll make sense)

any way my advice get a cat that looks just like the one u lost and name it the same thing itll feel the same after a while i promise i did that with my dog

any way to the friend part u only need one person to show they care to be happy but keep in mind that one person should prolly be the one u wanna spend the rest of ur life with cause theyll always be there for u 100%
 
well just to update i got tigers ashes on tuesday it was really weired it was a wooden box with a plastic bag of ashes in it.Ironicly the ashes look like kitty litter.
I also got the "prayer" card,a card that says tiger was cremated on this date follow by what pokemom provided earlier the rainbow bridge poem.

Its weired im used to tripping over him at night.Its hard to see anything at night and im always tripping over him.

Usually when i trip over him i snap and scream "c'mon get out my way",the other day i did that out of habit and it was my sweater that fell on the floor.
I thought it was my cat.

I swear if i dident know better i think he purposly make me trip on him because when it is dark and i dont see him and when i start screaming he run in a light filled room loks at me with such a big smile as if he is laughing at me.

As if he sets me up all the time.
My mom noticed that too "look at tigers face with that big smile,he knows what he did,he knows he tripped you again and he finds it funny."
Man what i would do to trip over him again.I miss that,I miss his annoyance.

That cat has such a personality and character and he knows what hes doing too to annoy me.
Me and him are alike we like to annoy others around us.
Man what i would gve up if i had him in my arms again.
I was thinking of getting a tatto of my cat on my forearms.

him laying on his back like a baby and im holding him in my arms.
When i bring my arms together it looks as if im holding him as a baby.

half cat on one arm the other half on the other bring it together and he is still in my arms.
 
reading all this makes me miss my dog.... I'm gonna go cuddle my kitty right now.... I totally know how you feel but that doesn't make it hurt any less. For what it's worth I hope you know how sorry I am for your loss.
